Probate & Trust Litigation

Confused or overwhelmed with a Probate or Trust? Being named an Executor of someone’s will, Trust or Estate can be a daunting task, especially when you don’t know what you’re doing. How do you manage such a huge task, when family members start challenging the wishes your departed loved one has left behind? Don’t worry, the Attorneys at Bay Area Family Law Center can help with all your Probate & Trust Litigation issues.

As an Executor, you may have to deal with any of the following matters in Probate cases:

• Will Contests
• Property Disputes
• Breach of Trust
• Failure to Account or Distribute

Being an Executor of an Estate or Administrator of a Will can be an overwhelming experience. Here are just a few of the responsibilities one is expected to do correctly:

• Notifying creditors of the probated Estate
• Filing a final tax return for the Estate
• Collecting, appraising managing and/or liquidating all of the Estate assets
• Paying debts or resolving claims held against the Estate

Having a Will and/or Trust helps manage and pass assets onto others in a carefully planned process. When the process isn’t planned very well, poorly administered or involves unhappy heirs or family members, the process can become convoluted, difficult and the courts will need to get involved. Having an Attorney that understands the process, especially when courts are involved, will help easy your mind.
